Greetings, Denis Excoffier!

> Today i was using cygwin-3.7.0-0.266… (found under /x86_64/release/cygwin,

> and built the new GCC 15.2.0. Then i built many (about 100) GNU or

> Same with cygwin-3.7.0-0.277… (the more recent one).

> But not the same with cygwin-3.7.0-0.124... that i fetched on the 6th of

> Then i started to bisect between cygwin-3.7.0-0.124… and cygwin-3.7.0-0.277…

> Unfortunately, cygwin-3.7.0 revisions from -124 to -246 are gone!

> Please don’t remove cygwin test releases too early.

If that's a critical issue for you, I suggest backing up setup.ini from the
local mirror under a timestamp after you've run the setup.exe to install the
software.

The packages themselves aren't removed from your drive.
